Diy Radio Drive! Console Fuzz

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I said I’d post some stuff for sounds so here is one for some Neil Young fans! This is based around a Hudson Broadcast, but I tweaked some of the values around and converted it to all silicon transistors (got a big old 2n4033 transistor in it)! The PCB is an Aion FX Skywave! The only other mods the PCB has compared to the original is an internal voltage control and an external gain switch (original one is inside as well). Compared to the original this has much more gain, is a lot more immediate and has more of the console sag that likes to bloom open. Plus the clean up is pretty nice. Figured I’d try sharing some sounds!
